Cool.

Children don't deserve to have asthma because you think "there's something satisfying about fire that makes it worth the increased pollution exposure." Though I'm glad that you believe you get to make that decision for them.

Fuck off.

Parents get to make so many decisions for their children but this is where you draw the line? Anyway, I don't have children and I'm not going to willingly give up my gas stove so that you can tell some third guy how to raise his.

Where did I say I drew a line? I'm just saying it's fucking stupid and selfish to be so upset and up in arms about potential regulations to make everyone healthier because they like fire.

You must be worn out after fighting all those straw men. Do you think "regulations" means "we're coming to take away the gas stove from your sad divorced dad studio apartment"?
